After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 216: Marquis Yong'an was cuckolded?
In just one night, the news that Yong'an Marquis Xiao Yi favored his concubine and killed his wife, and murdered his own daughter, spread throughout Kyoto.
Most people stood on the side of Xie's mother and daughter, accusing Xiao Yi of being a worthless person and being so cruel and crazy, but there were also a few people who spoke up for Xiao Yi...
"It's not a big crime for a man to be a bit romantic, not to mention that for a man of noble status like Yong'an Marquis, it's normal to have three wives and four concubines. What's wrong with having one or two lovers and an illegitimate daughter?"
"And who can say for sure what's going on in this inner house? Xiao Yi hates Xie and the eldest daughter of the Xiao family so much, maybe there's something fishy going on. After all, the Xie family is a century-old family, and the daughter they raised has had previous experience..."
"What does that mean?"
The man with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks sneered and said, "Have you forgotten the lesson of Concubine Xie? The current emperor is kind and the queen is virtuous. If it weren't for the moral flaws of Mrs. Xie, how could the royal family demote her to a concubine? I think Marquis Yong'an wanted to kill Xiao Xuetang that day. Maybe he discovered something, but he was concerned about the man's face and refused to speak out..."
Everyone gasped. Was Yong'an Marquis cuckolded, so he wanted to kill his own daughter? !
The news about the Marquis's Mansion was spreading like wildfire in the teahouses, and naturally there were people from the Eastern Palace and the Third Prince's Mansion who fanned the flames.
The person who said this was obviously someone from the Eastern Palace, and it actually involved Concubine Xie's past...
"Are you saying that the eldest daughter of the Xiao family is not the biological daughter of Marquis Yong'an?!"
As soon as the words fell, a tall middle-aged man suddenly stood up...
"Can you say that again!"
The man was tall and had a beard so his facial features could not be seen clearly. The only thing he had was a pair of eyes that were frighteningly bright and filled with fierce murderous intent.
He punched the gossiping man in the face like he was picking up a chick, and asked with a stern look in his eyes, "How dare you discuss the affairs of the royal family? Are you so bold? Tell me, who sent you here!"
The person who interrogated the man was none other than the second master of the Xie family, Xie Leihun.
The welcoming banquet was in the second half. Not long after the old lady sent someone to invite Xiao Yu over, Xie Leihun and Lin Xun left one after another.
Lin Xun was a little absent-minded during his evening meal. Xie Leifeng heard that Mrs. Xie was not feeling well and was a little worried about her health. He went to see Mrs. Xie first before returning to the Xie family's old house.
The Xie family was exiled back to Dongshan, but the old house of the Xie family in Wuyi Lane is still there. After all, it is the symbol of Dayin’s century-old family.
Most of the old house had been uninhabited for a long time, and the exquisite carvings and jade bricks looked a little dilapidated now. But Xie Leifeng was not like his fussy elder brother or picky third brother. Anyway, he was a rough guy and could live anywhere.
He needs to get enough rest and go to the palace tomorrow.
And there seems to be something wrong with Xiao Xuetang. How come the little girl who used to be so cute and always followed her elder brother so clingy now gets angry at the slightest provocation? When she is with Xiao Yu, they don't seem like siblings, but more like enemies.
It was probably because he encountered so many troubles on his first day in Kyoto that even someone as careless as Xie Leifeng couldn't sleep well.
The next morning, she prepared to submit a petition to the palace to ask for an audience with the emperor. However, while having breakfast outside, she heard some unbearable rumors about Mrs. Xie and Concubine Xie...
Can you tolerate Xie Leifeng's temper?
He overturned the table on the spot, and all the idle scoundrels around him scattered like birds and beasts.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Honeysuckle was numb. Anyway, his second master even beat the regent yesterday, so he would not be surprised if he did anything else.
At first, the man was quite stubborn and refused to reveal who was behind the scenes.
When Xie Leiying threatened to cut off one of his legs and hand him over to the censor, the man's legs went limp and he said, "I am from the East Palace. You are so bold as to be rude to me."
Xie Lei's eyes turned red with anger, and he said angrily: "Donggong? I'm going to hit you!"
Back then, the emperor demoted his wife to a concubine and helped Wang's daughter ascend to the throne, causing Concubine Xie and Xie to suffer so much injustice.
For the sake of the overall situation, the Xie family has been tolerant in everything. Now, after so many years, they even don't let go of the dead.
Seeing Xie Leifeng's murderous look, Ren Dong's heart skipped a beat and he said, "Master, you have to hold back!"
"Hold on!"
Without even a second thought, Xie Leifeng shook off Ren Dong's hand and angrily said, "If you keep putting up with this, our Xie family will all be in tatters! Anyway, my eldest brother and the others are not here, so I want to vent my anger. If anything goes wrong, I'll take the consequences alone."
Xie Leifeng's kung fu was able to fight Lin Xun for hundreds of moves. When he got impulsive, how could Ren Dong's body stop him? Just when Ren Dong was desperate, she heard a voice saying, "Second Master, don't be impulsive. You have to think about the Madam and the Miss."
The person who hurried over and stopped Xie Leiying was none other than Uncle Wu beside Xiao Xuetang.
Uncle Wu was also an old member of the Xie family, so he was naturally familiar with Ren Dong. He said calmly, "Now that the Marquis's residence is in trouble, the young lady can only rely on you. If you act on impulse, what will the young lady do?"
Hearing Xiao Xuetang's name, Xie Leifeng, who had originally wanted to punch these scoundrels to death, calmed down instantly as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on him...
Knowing that Xiao Xuetang was worried that Xie Leihun's personality might cause him to get into trouble in Kyoto, Xiao Xuetang asked Uncle Wu to come over, just in time to prevent the tragedy from happening.
Rendong couldn't help but give Xiao Xuetang a thumbs up in her heart.
Before, he was quite worried that after the Second Master returned to Kyoto, something might happen without the First and Third Masters to watch over him.
The prince has a gentle personality, and I'm afraid he won't be able to control the second master if something really happens. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady is the one who can be relied on in the end.
Time is amazing...
In Rendong's memory, Xiao Xuetang was still a naughty little girl who followed a few young masters. Unexpectedly, she had become so steady in just five years.
Xie Leifeng looked at the man trembling under his fist, disdainful in his heart, frowning slightly: "What about this man?"
Uncle Wu said calmly: "Tie him up and bring him to the young lady!"
Uncle Wu was very quick, knocking the man unconscious before he could speak and carrying him away. The trembling shopkeeper wanted to report to the police, but Uncle Wu took out a waist badge and said, "This is a runaway slave from the Ru'nan Palace. If anything happens today, the Ru'nan Palace will take full responsibility."
When the shopkeeper heard that he was doing business in the Prince's Palace of Runan, he immediately retreated.
When gods fight, the little devils suffer...
Xie Leikun???
When did his Tangtang get involved with the Prince of Runan's Palace?
Also, this man spoke dirty words and was beaten black and blue by him. Would it scare Tangtang if he was sent to Xiao Xuetang like this?
At this time, Xie Leifeng realized it belatedly and thought with some worry...
In Xie Leifeng's mind, Xiao Xuetang was still the child who needed to be protected. If the Xie family had not been in a bad situation in Dongshan in recent years and had not been being watched by others, how could they have let Xiao Xuetang suffer so much grievances alone in Kyoto?
